Capt. Neal was great as well as his crew. The equipment provided was great and the crew encouraged everyone to participate. Kevin even got me to jump off the top of the boat! My husband and I tried several different activities. The trip length was perfect and everyone had a good time. The crew was multi-lingual speaking Korean, Japanese and English. The tour company made sure to keep us very informed of details and transportation. I would use this company for other adventures next time.

This is our third time participating as a senior couple. The sea can be quite challenging with the wind, so we decided to paddle leisurely in the calm canals where there are no waves or wind. While enjoying the views of golf courses and vacation homes, we were occasionally greeted by dogs, and we made a round trip to the lake (pond) in two hours. It was a fulfilling time.
Note: When paddling, your lower legs can get quite sunburned, so be sure to take thorough sun protection measures!

Real friendly, helpful crew. Enjoyed every minute of the tour. My only complaint was the lack snacks and refreshments. The only thing that was available was rice crispy treats and water. Had we known that this was all that was available, we would have brought our own.

We had a great tour with (creepy) Uncle Kevin today on the North Shore of Oahu! We've been touring all around the world and can seriously rank Uncle Kevin as one of the best tour guides. The Surf Bus has the right equipment, the right itinerary and an excellent attitude. The bus was on time at every stage and Kevin had good solid connections at every stage. He took the time to work with each group on tour to insure they had the right experience. Some of the stops had multiple options and he was able to call ahead to report those options to the vendor. Kevin recommended great food and knew how important this is to an all day tour. One unmistakable clue that Kevin really knows what he is doing is that he knew so many of the other folks involved with the tour on a personal level. He's a local. He knew all of the answers because he grew up here.
Great attention to detail makes for a great tour. Uncle Kevin obviously knows what he is doing and we look forward to going on another Oahu tour with him soon. Also, kudos to the bus company. They had the right equipment and marketing to make Kevin's expertise shine.
Thanks to my creepy uncle Kevin from Oahu. Mahalo!

This was by far one of the favorite things we have done in Oahu! Everyone was professional. You break up into small groups so our family of 5 was able to do this activity together with our own private guide. He was fabulous and let us work as much as we wanted kayaking and then would pull us when my younger kiddos needed a break. So fun! Pleasant for kayaking and beautiful for snorkeling. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Aloha Dennise,
Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! I'm so glad to hear it sounds like it was a good experience! And thank you also for taking the time to leave such a wonderful and positive review for us. That really means a lot and we appreciate that very much. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo nui loa!

I participated in a kayak tour with a Japanese guide at Kailua Beach with my sister. We were picked up from our hotel at 7:35 AM and arrived at the shop near Kailua Beach around 9 AM. After receiving an explanation about the kayaks, we carried the kayaks ourselves to a nearby beach and paddled towards a deserted island. Once we reached the island, the guide took us around while explaining about it. They also took a lot of photos for us. On the day I participated, the weather wasn't great, with rain showers coming and going, but it felt adventurous and I enjoyed it. The kayaking time is about an hour, so it might be a bit short for experienced paddlers. However, I recommend this tour for beginners. The staff was cheerful, and the shop's facilities were well-equipped, allowing us to have a safe and enjoyable time.
カイルアビーチでの日本語ガイド付きカヤックツアーに姉と二人で参加しました。
7時35分にホテルでピックアップしてもらい、9時頃にカイルアビーチの側のショップに到着。カヤックの説明を受けた後、カヤックを自分たちで近くのビーチまで運び、無人島を目指して漕ぎ進めます。無人島に着いたらガイドの方が無人島を一周しながら案内してくれました。写真もたくさん撮ってくれます。私が参加した日は、スコールのような雨が降ったり止んだりと、あまり良い天気とは言えませんでしたが、冒険という感じがして楽しめました。カヤックを漕ぐ時間は1時間ぐらいなので、経験者には少し物足りないかも。初心者にはオススメのツアーです。スタッフさんが明るくて、ショップの設備も整っているので、安心して楽しい時間を過ごせました。

We participated as a couple with a Japanese guide. We had free time in the first half, and then we went kayaking at noon. We decided to try cycling, which we hadn't planned for. The bike had a brake that stops when you pedal backward, and I was quite nervous getting used to it. However, I was amazed by the beauty of Lanikai Beach and the lovely cycling path along Kailua Beach! I'm glad we did it ^_^
The kayaking in the second half was stunning because the sea was so beautiful, and I was in awe. However, I was so focused on paddling that I couldn't take many photos. After we reached the uninhabited island, we had the guide take various pictures for us, but I was really disappointed that we didn't get a photo of the two of us in the kayak. It ended with me wondering, "Huh? Huh?" The kayaking felt great while we were on it, but we capsized when getting in and out, which turned out to be surprisingly fun (^ ^)w
日本語ガイド付きで夫婦2人で参加しました。私達は前半が自由時間で、12時からカヤックでした。予定してなかったサイクリングをしてみました。この自転車がペダルを後ろにこぐと止まるブレーキで、なかなか慣れずドキドキしながら乗りました。でもラニカイビーチの美しさやカイルアビーチ沿いのサイクリングロードの綺麗さに感動でした!!
して良かったと思います^_^
後半のカヤックは海がとても綺麗だったので、わ〜と思いましたが、漕ぐのに必死で写真をあまり取れず無人島に着いてからいろいろ写真をガイドさんに撮って頂きましたが、2人でカヤック乗ってる写真を取ってもらえると思っていたのに撮ってもらえなかったのがすごい残念でした。。あれ?あれ?と思ったまま終わってしまいました。カヤックは乗ってる時も気持ち良いですが、乗るときと降りる時に転覆して、それが意外と面白かったです(^ ^)w

I participated with my 5-year-old daughter and my partner. It started without much explanation, and we paddled out, enjoying the waves alongside surfers. After it ended, I was asked if I saw any photos, but there wasn't anyone taking pictures, so I wondered if they had taken some without us knowing. In the end, no photos were taken. I wonder if they would take pictures if requested, although it might be an additional charge. We don't have any photos of us on the canoe, and while it remains a nice memory, I think it would have been great to have some, especially since we were with a child.
5歳の娘と親子3人で参加しました。
特に説明もなく始まり、パドルをもって漕ぎ出し、サーファーと一緒に気持ち良く波乗りを楽しみました。

写真を希望すれば、撮ってくださるのかな?別料金でしょうけど。

Above all, the beauty of Kailua Beach is beyond words. It is incredibly clear and beautiful. My first kayaking experience was very exciting and fun. Our Japanese guide, Tomo, was bright and kind, sharing stories about the island's formation and culture, which made for an enjoyable time.
Seeing a sea turtle for the first time and snorkeling at Lanikai Beach during the afternoon free time, where I saw many fish, were both wonderful experiences.
I highly recommend this for anyone who loves nature experiences and being active.

We had one Japanese guide who accompanied us on the kayak, teaching us how to paddle and taking photos for us. It was almost our first time kayaking, so we were nervous, but we were able to enjoy it. We even saw sea turtles in the beautiful ocean.
It's difficult to enjoy a beach while carrying your belongings, but we were able to store our things in a locker and borrow mats, snorkeling gear, fins, and an underwater bag to ride our bikes to the beach, which allowed us to have a great time! The rental fees for these items were included if you signed up for the kayak tour. We had lunch at a pizza place, where we got a large pizza cut into quarters along with drinks.
At first, I thought the price was a bit high when I signed up, but it was worth it, and we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

●Meeting place… It was convenient, very close to the hotel.
●Itinerary… Arrival at the shop, tour explanation, free time, lunch, kayaking, conclusion. I thought the free time was in the afternoon, and I only figured out how to spend that time on-site, so I wish there had been a bit more information about that.
Here are my thoughts on each aspect.
●Free time… I had breakfast at a shop about a three-minute walk from the store. They had various options like tortillas and hot dogs. There were also souvenirs available. You can rent bicycles at the shop. It seems you can reach Kailua Town in about 10 minutes. Toward the beach, it takes about 10 minutes to Kailua Beach, and from there, it took just under another 10 minutes to get to Lanikai Beach. They provided a video guide for the route, and the staff gave me a map and explained it. The shop also rents out snorkeling sets, so it would have been nice to plan to take one and play in the ocean, but I didn't plan that far ahead, so I just ended up looking at the beach.
●Lunch… You can get tickets for a meat-based lunch plate shop adjacent to the shop or a pizza place. The pizza was very delicious.
●Kayaking… After learning how to paddle at the shop from 12 PM, you carry the kayak to the sea yourself. They can help you get into the kayak, but after that, you paddle straight toward an uninhabited island about 600 meters away. The staff accompanies you, so it's reassuring.
●Uninhabited island… Upon arriving at the island, we took a short break and had some water and snacks. Then we walked around the island. We enjoyed a pleasant stroll while receiving guidance about the island and taking photos. After that, we kayaked back to the beach.
●About the shop… There are lockers with locks, changing rooms, restrooms, and showers. The showers are outside, so they are just for rinsing off sand. You can buy beach essentials and souvenirs at the shop. They provide excellent support in Japanese, which was reassuring.
The staff were friendly, creating a great atmosphere, and thanks to them, I had a wonderful experience and memories.
Kayaking isn't too difficult, so I think even those who aren't good at sports can enjoy it. I recommend it for those who want a little adventure in the Hawaiian sea and feel that just swimming might not be enough!
●集合場所…ホテルのすぐ近くで便利でした。
●行程…ショップ到着、ツアー説明、自由行動、ランチ、カヤック、終了。自由行動が午後だと思っていたのと、自由行動の過ごし方も現地でやっとわかったので、その辺りの情報がもう少しあるとよかったかな、と思います。
以下、それぞれについて感想です。
●自由行動…ショップから歩いて3分ほどのお店で朝食をとりました。トルティーヤやホットドッグなど、いろいろあります。お土産もありました。
ショップではレンタサイクルが借りれます。
カイルアタウンまで約10分でいけるそうです。ビーチ方面では、カイルアビーチまで約10分、そこからさらに10分弱でラニカイビーチまでいけました。道のりはビデオで案内してくれましたし、スタッフの方が地図をくれて説明してくれました。ショップではシュノーケルのセットなどが借りれるので、持って行って海で遊べたらよかったのですが、そこまで計画できてなかったので、ビーチを見て終わりました。
●ランチ…ショップに隣接するお肉系のランチプレートのお店か、ピザのお店のチケットをもらえます。ピザがとても美味しかったです。
●カヤック…12時からショップで漕ぎ方を教えてもらったあと、カヤックを自分で海まで運びます。カヤックに乗り込むのは手伝ってもらえますが、あとは600メートルほど先の無人島を目指してひたすら漕ぎます。スタッフさんもついているので安心です。
●無人島…島に着くと、少し休憩し、お水とおやつをいただきました。そこから島を歩いて一周します。島の案内をしていただいたり、写真を撮ったりしながら楽しく散歩しました。その後、カヤックでビーチまで戻ります。
●ショップについて…鍵付きロッカー、更衣室、お手洗い、シャワーがあります。シャワーは外にあるので砂をさっと洗い流す程度です。お店ではビーチで必要なものやお土産も買えます。日本語対応はバッチリなので安心でした。
スタッフさんは気さくな方ばかりで、雰囲気の良く、おかげさまでとてもよい体験と思い出ができました。
カヤックはそんなに難しくないので運動が得意でない方でも楽しめると思います。
ハワイの海でちょっと冒険したい方、泳ぐだけでは物足りないかな?という方にオススメです!!

It was my first time kayaking, and I was anxious about going out to sea since I'm not a strong swimmer. However, the instructor was very kind, and since there were five kayaks (ten people), we had instructors in front and behind us, which made me feel secure while paddling. As a result, I was able to enjoy it without capsizing. I'm very satisfied since this is something I can't experience in Japan. If the afternoon session had been one hour longer, I feel like I could have enjoyed snorkeling and shopping even more. During the kayaking, they took many photos, and I was told they would send them to me via email later, so I'm really looking forward to that.
カヤックは初めてで泳ぎも不得意で、沖合に出るのに不安を感じてましたが、
インストラクターの方がとても親切で、5艇(10人)だったので、前後にインストラクターがついてくれ、安心して漕ぐことができました。結果的に、転覆
もなく、とても楽しむことができました。日本では経験できないので大満足です。昼からの時間がもう1時間長ければ、シュノーケリングやショッピングも

However, during the drive from the meeting point to Kailua Beach Adventures, the driver (who was not Japanese) didn't greet us at all. Additionally, on the return trip, there was no announcement like "The next stop is ○○," so if I had dozed off, I would have missed my stop. Is this just part of the responsibility in Hawaii...? Even if they can't speak Japanese, I think they should at least provide this information.
But the kayaking was fun. I would like to try it again next time.
初めてのカヤックでしたが、十分楽しめました。
海に出る前に簡単な漕ぎ方を教わりますが、やはりぶっつけ本番です。でも段々と慣れていくので不安はなくなります。
ガイドのりゅうせいさんが気分を盛り上げてくれ、より一層楽しいカッヤック体験になりました。ありがとうございました。
是非 ガイド付きをお勧めします。スタッフの方々も優しいです。
しかし、集合場所からカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズまでの道中運転手さん(日本人ではない)が何の挨拶もなし。また復路ではカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズがら解散場所まで、「次の停車場所は○○です」の案内がないので自分が寝過ごしてしまったら最後、降りるべき所で降りれない。これもハワイ、自己責任なのでしょうか・・・
日本語が話せないとしてもこれだけは案内すべきと思います。
でも、カヤックは楽しかったです。次回もやってみたいです。
Dear Chocolat,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your comments. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed kayaking. We appreciate your feedback regarding the driver. While this is Hawaii, we take responsibility for that matter and will work on improvements.
We look forward to your next visit, so please do come and visit us in Kailua when you are in Hawaii.
Thank you.

It was a last-minute kayak tour with an instructor. The instructor was very nice, and I felt安心 (at ease) even with my two children! They shared various stories on the island, and the kids were very interested! Since lunch was included, we had pizza for lunch! The pizza was delicious, and it was a very satisfying day. I want to come back again next year!
急遽、インストラクターさんについてもらってのカヤックツアーでした。
インストラクターさんがとても良い方で子供2人連れてでしたが安心して行けました!
島でも色んな話をしてくれて子供たちも興味津々!
ランチも付いていたので、ランチはピザにしました!
ピザも美味しくて大満足の1日でした。また来年も来たいです!!
Dear Yamayama,
Thank you for participating in the kayak tour and for your comments. We are glad to hear that you were able to switch from a self-guided kayak to a guided kayak tour at the last minute and enjoyed it safely.
When you come to Hawaii again, please do visit Kailua for kayaking. Our staff is looking forward to welcoming you back.
Thank you.

We had a wonderful morning kayaking! Our guide, Dan, was so knowledgeable about the island and made it a great experience. We got lucky and saw at least 10 turtles. I highly recommend this activity!
We are so happy that you and your group got to see so many Hawaiian Green Turtles!! We hope you will come back soon and visit us again.

Kayaking was a bit difficult, but it was a lot of fun! It was interesting to land on a flat island and receive explanations about various plants and birds. I was also happy to have the opportunity to take photos in different places. At one point, we had a chance to surf on the waves while kayaking, and the chances of capsizing were fifty-fifty. I did end up capsizing, but I think it was worth trying. I got some scrapes and cuts during the capsize, but the guide helped me out with medicine and band-aids. In the afternoon, I had free time, so I rented a bike and went snorkeling in the sea. I really enjoyed it!
カヤックは漕ぐのはちょっと難しかったんですが、とても楽しかったです!
平らな島に上陸して色々な植物や鳥の説明をしてもらえるので面白かったです。
そして、色々な所で写真を撮ってもらえるのも嬉しかったです。
途中カヤックでの波乗りをやる場面があり、転覆する確率は五分五分。見事に転覆してしまいましたが、やってみる価値はあるかと。転覆の際、擦り傷切り傷ができてしまったんですがガイドさんが薬と絆創膏をくれたので助かりました。
午後は自由行動だったので自転車を借りて海でシュノーケル。楽しめました
Dear Misa,

I was surprised by how much speed I picked up!
I used the oars to paddle until we got out to sea.
I also enjoyed the sensation of being slammed down onto the water's surface when hitting larger waves.
Even for those who can't surf, it was a refreshing experience that allowed me to understand the feelings of surfers!
思いの外スピードが出たのでビックリしました!
沖に出るまでオールを使って漕いでいきます。
大きめの波に当たると落差でドンと水面に叩きつけられる感覚も楽しめました。
サーフィンが出来ない人でもサーファーの気持ちがわかるような、爽快感のある体験ができました!
Dear Koji,
Thank you very much for your five-star review! You are absolutely right. Outrigger canoe "surfing" is indeed riding the waves while on a canoe. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! Outrigger canoeing is a stable and very safe activity, so even those who cannot swim and customers of various ages can enjoy it! We look forward to your next visit! Please consider using our one-hour charter next time! With the charter (charged by the hour), you can ride the waves multiple times within the reserved time, and participants can switch places during the ride. Additionally, with the charter, you can reserve two canoes together, making it suitable for team-building events as well.
We look forward to your next visit!
コージ様:
5つ星の口コミとても有難うございました!コージ様のおっしゃる通りです。アウトリガーカヌー”サーフィン”はカヌーに乗って波乗りをする事なんですよね。楽しんで頂けて何よりです!アウトリガーカヌーは安定性がありとても安全なアクティビティーですので、泳げない方でもそして年齢層の幅の広いお客様に楽しんで頂けます!又のお越しをお待ちしております!次回は1時間のチャーターなどもご利用ください! チャーター(1時間単位)の場合、チャーターなさって頂いた時間内に何度も波に乗る事ができ、そして乗る方も途中で交代する事が出来ます。また、チャーターの場合は2艘一緒に予約が出来ますので、チームビルディングのイベントなどにもご利用頂けます。
またのお越しをお待ちしております。

I'm glad I chose the guided tour. I was able to get some photos taken, and I received explanations about the birds on the island. It was tough due to the heavy rain, but kayaking was a lot of fun!

You have to transport the sea kayak from the shop to the sea by yourself, but it was fairly easy because we attached wheels to the bottom of the kayak. It was a bit challenging after removing the wheels.
It was our first time kayaking, and getting in was difficult. Because of the waves, we couldn't get in as smoothly as we wanted... but someone nearby helped us, so we managed to get in.
Once we were out on the water, it was tough to paddle against the strong wind, but as we got used to it, it became enjoyable.
We went to Lanikai Beach and thought about trying snorkeling, but there weren't many fish. That was a bit disappointing. However, the ocean was incredibly beautiful.
We returned the kayak in the early afternoon and rented a boogie board to spend the rest of our time. Since there weren't many people, we were able to enjoy the boogie boarding.
シーカヤックは、お店から海まで自力で運ぶのですがカヤックの下に移動用のタイヤを付けるのでまぁまぁ楽でした。タイヤをとってからが少し大変でした。
私たちは初めてのシーカヤックだったのですが、乗り込むのが大変でした。
波があるので思うように乗り込めなくて・・・・、近くで見ていた人が助けてくれたのでなんとか乗れました。
海では風が強くアゲインストに対して漕ぎ出すのは、大変でしたが慣れてくると楽しかったです。
ラニカイビーチまで行き、シュノーケリングをしてみようと思ったのですがあまり魚はいなかったですね。少し残念。でも海は最高にきれいでした。
お昼過ぎにカヤックを返して、ブギーボードを借りて残りの時間を過ごしました。
人が多くないのでブギーボードが楽しめました。
Dear Kojikoji,
Thank you for visiting and for your comments. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed kayaking despite the strong winds. It's unfortunate that you couldn't see many fish, but we're glad to know that you enjoyed bodyboarding as well.
